    Kneecapped to uselessness. Are we really negating the efforts to stifle climate change with a technology that consumes monstrous amounts of energy only to lobotomize it right as it’s about to be useful? Humanity is functionally retarded at this point.

      Do you think AI is supposed to be useful?!

      Its sole purpose is to generate wealth so that stock prices can go up next quarter.

        Doesn’t even need to generate actual wealth, as speculation about future wealth is enough for the market.

        I WANT to believe:

        People are threatening lawsuits for every little thing that AI does, whittling it down to uselessness, until it dies and goes away along with all of its energy consumption.

        REALITY:

        Everyone is suing everything possible because $$$, whittling AI down to uselessness, until it sits in the corner providing nothing at all, while stealing and selling all the data it can, and consuming ever more power.

      If you’re asking an LLM for advice, then you’re the exact reason they need to be taught to redirect people to actual experts.

      I agree with the sentiment but as an autistic person I’d appreciate it if you didn’t use that word

      EDIT: downvotes? Come on, lemmy, what gives? If this had been an anti-trans slur you’d have already grabbed your pitchforks!

        I’ve seen a big uptick in that word usage, I don’t like seeing them and use a replacing extension to intercept and censor them to a more appropriate word, while showing an asterisk so I know it was censored. Now I don’t have to see the word, but I still get to see who is being a bigoted jerk.

        Edit: ya so I guess on lemmy people think it’s cool to throw ableist slurs.
